Ross finished his EA contract and began work with Three Fields last month, and told followers the company was "building something new and modern for the modern age. We won't forget our history though."
The biggest problem with working in the #GamesIndustry is that when you find something truly #exciting you can't #scream it to everybody.

The company, announced in March, has previously said that it's not looking for short term profits, but "giving our people and our games the time and space they need to breathe and grow."
Ross spent 18 years with Criterion and was involved with both Ghost Games and the Need For Speed franchise.
The company also tweeted that it is currently at work on two titles, both scheduled for release in 2015.
